(“WGI”) (Doc. No. 21285). This Court granted a Motion for Summary Judgment with respect to all cases that were pending before the Court on December 20, 2013 (Doc. 21245).

As a result, those cases (which are captioned above) were transferred back to this section for final disposition. 1169584v.1 The instant motion seeking the entry of a Rule 54(b) judgment was filed, no opposition has been lodged thereto, and for all of the reasons stated in the Court’s Order and Reasons of December 20, 2013 (Doc. 21245), the Court finds merit in this motion and finding no just cause for delay pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b), IT IS ORDERED that the Motion for Entry of Rule 54(b) Judgments in favor of Washington Group International, Inc. is GRANTED and judgment shall be entered in favor of Washington Group International, Inc. and against all plaintiffs in the enumerated cases with each party to bear its/his/her costs.
